A man who was hospitalized Sunday after crashing his motorcycle into a car on Southeast 164th Avenue has been identified as 38-year-old Shawn Lushenko.

Lushenko lost control of his motorcycle near the intersection of Southeast 15th Street at 2:47 p.m., according to a news release from the Vancouver Police Department, and crashed into a car that was driving west through the intersection.

He was transported to PeaceHealth Southwest Medical Center for evaluation and treatment of potentially serious injuries.

A hospital spokesperson told The Columbian that Lushenko was released on Monday.

Speed was a factor in the crash, according to the police department. The driver of the car remained at the scene and cooperated with investigators.
